老年白内障患者超声乳化吸除联合人工晶状体植入术后生存质量的变化

目的：探讨老年白内障患者超声乳化吸除联合人工晶状体植入术后生存质量的提高状况。方法：超声乳白内障化吸除联合人工晶状体植入术治疗的老年白内障患者116例，分别在手术前，手术后1周和1、3、6个月作眼科检查并完成生存质量问卷。结果：生存质量得分及自理，活动，社交和心理4个指标的得分在手术后1周和1、3、6个月4个时点比较，两两之间比较差异无显著性（P＞0．05），但术后4个时点均高于手术前得分，且差异有显著性（P＜0．05）。结论：老年性白内障患者在行白内障超声乳化吸除联合人工晶状体入术后1周，生存质量即提高，从术后1周至6个月，生存质量无明显变化。
